Hello,
I have read part of the https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA%C2%A0guide to know how to install proprietary drivers for my Nvidia card. My laptop comes with a regular Intel Graphics card alongside an Nvidia Geforce GTX 960M card. I am on Fedora 36, Gnome (Wayland). I don't want to mess up my system, so I just want to ask; what is the simplest procedure install drivers for this card on my system?
When these drivers are installed, will I still be able to do regular work with my Intel card and launch specific applications (games) with the Nvidia card? My card supports CUDA and Optimus.
Do I need to disable Secure Boot?
Note: I have already enabled the free and non-free RPM fusion repositores. I know there is a specific rpmfusion Nvidia driver repository, do I need that also?

akmod-nvidia and xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda should be all you need:
sudo dnf update -y # and reboot if you are not on the latest kernel sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia # rhel/centos users can use kmod-nvidia instead sudo dnf install xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda #optional for cuda/nvdec/nvenc support
IIRC I also had to blacklist the Nouveau driver. Don't know if that's still necessary.
